From the Register ***
News Corp will announce today it has paid an undisclosed sum for Beliefnet.com, a faith portal whose mission “is to help people like you find, and walk, a spiritual path that will bring comfort, hope, clarity, strength, and happiness”.
The site was founded in 1999, during the dotcom boom, and soldiered through the crash. MediaBistro.com, which broke news of the News Corp deal, reports that founder and editor-in-chief Steve Waldman will do nicely out of the deal.
Beliefnet boasts 3.1 million visitors per month and 7.6 million registered users. ***
